Psychedelic Parenting Podcast #14

Yes, Mom TooK Acid, with Mariavittoria Mangini of The Women’s Visionary Congress

This week’s guest is Mariavittoria Mangini, PhD, FNP. Dr. Mangini is a member of the board of directors of the Women’s Visionary Congress, and has been a family nurse midwife for twenty five years. She has written extensively on the impact of psychedelic experiences in shaping the lives of her contemporaries, and has worked closely with many of the most distinguished investigators in this field. Her current project is the development of a Thanatology program for the study of death and dying.

Jonathan was alerted to her work and her resonance with Psychedelic Parenting when a listener passed along a digital copy of her 2000 PhD dissertation entitled Yes, Mom Took Acid: The Sociohistorical Influence of Prior Psychedelic Drug Use in Adults. We soon discovered that not only was she a WVC board member, but also working in a family practice that incorporated cannabis as a regular part of their work.
